Peter Bergen: Iran Has Been ‘Very Clear’ That Continuing Uranium Enrichment Is ‘Non-Negotiable’

‘The distance between the two sides as colonel Leighton has indicated is very large’

RUSH EXCERPT:

BERGEN: “Yeah.h. mean, they‘ve beeee very clear that they non-negotiable for them is to continue to keep their uranium enriched, , at they have, but also having some kind of tolling system on the Strait of Hormuz, which the United States has also said is non-negotiable. So, I mean, the distance between the two sides is colonel layton has indicated ISIS is veryryarge. Yo know, one approach Trump could take I ijust carry out some kind of military action and declare victory, because with every passininday, theherice of gas probably goes up probably $0.02 a day, $0.03 a day. It‘s already atat55. The price of oil goes, you know, it‘s 103 a barrel right now. And so, and, you know, at the same time, there‘s sort of anan inverse relationshi between the cost of gas and the dropping polling numbers for the president."
